Don’t Forget


Remember your last healing

Have you ever prayed God would correct something in your life, and He did? Have you ever asked Him to bless you, or a member of your family, and He did? Do you remember your last healing? Many of us are guilty of having some really short-term memories; we forget all the good things God has done for us way too soon. It’s like we pray and pray because our problem or situation is very serious, and then faithfully God answers our prayers, then before long we’ve forgotten all about His special “gift” or His blessing. We go back to all the other things we used to think about, and now, that which we prayed for, and got, are no longer a problem for us, so we just forget what He has done for us. Shame on us!

I am reminded by the Holy Spirit, it’s important that we stop and realize how complacent and forgetful we can be. I know I am guilty of forgetting His wonderful work myself. In fact, several weeks ago, I asked God to help me with an anxiety problem I was having. He graciously allowed me time to think about what I had been worrying about, and to come to realize I was trying once again to deal with life on my own. I know better, but I sometimes slip back into some old habits! Once I gave in and seriously confided that I needed Him to help me, all my reasons for worrying were gone! It was as though I had been struggling for nothing!

The Holy Spirit suggested today that I continue thanking God for what He has done for me. Fortunately, for me, He did just about the time I was almost starting to take Him for granted again. I am ashamed! Forgive me LORD! And, He softly says to me…”I WILL!”

Remember your blessings. Thank your Father for all He has given you and will continue to give you. Our God is an awesome God!

Apostates Predicted

Sensual persons who cause divisions   I quote from the Book of Jude, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, who was addressing those who were called , sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ. In verses 16 through 19, Jude warned of apostates who would come around and make themselves known. He described them as grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts , to use Jude’s own words. He went on to describe them as those who would be mouthing swelling words, flattering to gain advantage . Jude continued saying, “But you beloved, remember the words which were spoken before the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: how they told you there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. Fast-forward now to today; to our present time, the year 2012. How is this book (Jude) of very few words; the little book which precedes the last book of the Bible; Revelation relevant to our (contemporary...

God’s Family

He provides resources for the family “For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those whom call upon You” (Psalm 86:5). God’s plan for marriage and the family, in the Bible, is intended to be ideal, full of prosperity for every member. Would you say this describes your family? Maybe, maybe not, however, even if your family has missed His mark His Word deals with life realistically. Many of us experience some aspect of failure or serious disappointment with the way our family is living. Many families today are divided by divorce or living as single-parent family units. God alone can provide the needed resources and the loving care vital for the needs of these families who are dealing with life. If you are having trouble in your family turn to Jesus. He is your primary resource for forgiveness and your hope for renewal (Ephesians 1:7).   He forgives no matter if the failure is yours or it is one of those times when someone else fails yo...

Two Kinds of Wisdom

That which is earthly, and that which is heavenly The Bible speaks of us being exposed to two kinds of wisdom; one that subjects us to bitterness, envy and selfish ambition, e.g. earthly wisdom , and that which comes from heaven which is first of all pure; peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. In (James 3:13) this servant of God, asked , “Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.” Which form of wisdom will you profess; that which is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil or that which is of heaven? At the time of Jesus’ birth, three wise men from the east came to Jerusalem seeking the one who was now born King of the Jews . King Herod called upon these three to “Go and make a careful search for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.” he said in; (Matthew 2:8) -- the three wise men were told by He...
